Despite splitting time between Tulsa and Ohio State over the past month, Kevin Wilson has remained focused on preparing the Buckeyes for the CFP.
The sixth-year Ohio State assistant accepted the head coaching vacancy. However, with a rather important game still looming for the Buckeyes, it’s not as though Wilson could entirely abandon post. He made his desire to win a first-ever national championship plain before the season, and with that opportunity still on the table, he felt “obligated” to see the job through.
“I've been here since last Thursday. So now I'm pushing about 12 days directly with the team all the time,” Wilson said Tuesday during interviews in Atlanta. “And really what's different from years ago is when there's a coaching change, you have to recruit your team so everybody doesn't jump on the portal. So that was the issue was just trying to keep the guys on board. But I'm very compartmentalized. These guys know this.
I am in this position because of what these guys have done and the obligation. I said back in the preseason one of our goals was to get in this game and be a part of this. And we want to have success in this game."Wilson even distinguished between the preparation for a regular bowl game and what is required for a playoff matchup with the nation’s No. 1 team. That means even while pulling double duty, Wilson’s work may be even more detailed this year than last.
“It's no change because Coach Wilson has been doing the same thing I've been doing since I've been in school. They always find a clean game plan for us,” Stroud said Tuesday. “That's for the outside world to think that's confusing. Coach Wilson has been there every time I ask for him or need him. There's no confusion. That's probably for you guys. We've been doing the same things we've been doing. But yeah, he does a great job.
